Jälkipuoliskon

Jälkipuoliskon is a Finnish term that translates to "after-half" or "latter half" in English. It refers to the latter portion of a period of time, such as a year, a month, a game, or a specific event. The term is often used in a context where a division into two distinct parts is implied, with "jälkipuoliskon" specifically denoting the second of these parts.

For instance, in the context of a year, "vuoden jälkipuoliskon" would mean the latter half of the year, typically from July to December. Similarly, in sports, "ottelun jälkipuoliskon" would refer to the second half of a match. The meaning is straightforward and its usage depends entirely on the preceding noun or context that defines the initial period being divided. It is a common and functional term in everyday Finnish.
